oldest known subsistence strategy and has been practised for at least the last two million years. It was,
indeed, the only way to obtain food until rudimentary farming and the domestication of wild animals
were introduced about 10,000 years ago.
Because hunter-gatherers have fared poorly in comparison with their agricultural cousins, their
numbers have dwindled, and they have been forced to live in marginal environments, such as deserts
and arctic wastelands. In higher latitudes, the shorter growing seasons have restricted the availability of
plant life. Such conditions have caused a greater dependence on hunting, and on fishing along the coasts
and waterways. The abundance of vegetation in the lower latitudes of the tropics, on the other hand, has
provided a greater opportunity for gathering a variety of plants. In short, the environmental differences
have restricted the diet and have limited possibilities for the development of subsistence societies.
Contemporary hunter-gatherers may help us understand our prehistoric ancestors. We know from
the observation of modern hunter-gatherers in both Africa and Alaska that a society based on hunting
and gathering must be very mobile. While the entire community camps in a central location, a smaller
party harvests the food within a reasonable distance from the camp. When the food in the area has
become exhausted, the community moves on to exploit another site. We also notice seasonal migration
patterns evolving for most hunter-gatherers, along with a strict division of labor between the sexes.
These patterns of behavior may be similar to those practised by mankind during the Paleolithic Period.

A. agricultural products B. nature's provision C. farming methods D. hunter-gatherers'
tools

___________.
A. only the way of duty division B. some restricted daily rules
C. some methods of production D. some patterns of behavior
